Sarah Everett hosts “Crosscurrents” on KRNN every Thursday from 8am – 10am, and has a wonderful time doing so.

While not a radio host, Sarah is a scholar & interpreter of James Madison, a devoted learner of French culture & language, and a first & foremost happy follower of Jesus Christ.

Not just another country Johnny with a negotiable last name, KRNN’s Johnny Negotiable comes from the Land of New Jersey, where the air is as sweet and mild as the disposition of the natives. With a hale and hearty constitution, Johnny made a run for it after jimmying too many car doors. He wound up in Alaska where he paints house and waxes philological. He is obsessed with punk violin.

He believes good music is good religion deserving of praise, hand-clapping and hallelujahs!
